Sounds almost like Bach. Very nice playing. Such rich sound.

It sounds like... well, it sounds like GG doing Mozart.  LOL  I love GG, but Bach was where he was strongest-- straying from Bach, I always felt outside of that his interpretations were very eccentric (well, then again, his Bach interpretations were sometimes eccentric also LOL but he was sooo good at it and I love GG's Bach). 

Gould had said more than once that he had a VERY low opinion of Mozart.  Its odd that he did record a few albums worth of him.

Check out his interpretations of Beethoven. They are really good as well.
